Listing broker remarks

Discover this stylish Cape-style retreat on a serene street in Stoneham’s coveted Bear Hill neighborhood. The vibe starts at the welcoming entryway, flowing effortlessly into a chic dining room accented by classic moldings. The heart of the home is a massive, light-filled kitchen designed for hosting, featuring a sleek center island/breakfast bar with a prep sink, granite counters, and premium stainless appliances. A main-floor family room and bath keep daily living seamless. Head upstairs to find two spacious bedrooms, a second bath, and a bright, open foyer that’s perfect for a dedicated home office. The heated, finished lower level adds serious flex space for a gym or lounge, plus plenty of storage. Outside, enjoy your private, fenced-in oasis complete with a stone patio and a high-end Reeds Ferry shed. Total style meets a prime location—this one won't last. Home was originally built as a three bedroom home. Previous owners converted it to a two bedroom but it could be changed back to a three bedroom. Easy to show.— Compass
